The Surgens are a band from Peterborough, England, who reformed in 2009 as The Malingerers. Wielding old guitars, harmonicas and lap steels screaming through 1950s amplifiers to the back drop of musical saws and unmusical washboards, deep twang, and rumbling drums it’s no surprise that The Organ magazine have described The Surgens as “A kind of White Stripes for Captain Beefheart fans who like their country blues a little twisted and scuffed around the edges” and Sleazegrinder have likened the band to “the house band on that Mississippi steamer drinking on the Devils tab".
